By CHARLIE LENTZ [email protected] LITTLETON — ressure will come soon enough for Profile School and the rest of the field as theP Division IV state soccer tournament arrives in two weeks. But the Patriots got a taste of it early in the second half against Littleton Friday at Remich Park. Profile fell into a 1-0 hole against the Crusaders and was without its top scorer — senior Allen Komisarek — who was home in bed with a 102-degree fever. “I got a call from his mom today and she said he’s still running a high temp,” said Profile coach Dave Robinson. “It’s nothing serious but we definitely missed him today offensively.” Profile overcame both the one-goal deficit and Komisarek’s absence by fever- ishly rallying to a 2-1 victory to lift its record to 12-0. “Really it showed a lot of character for our team, com- ing back from a 1-0 (Littleton) lead,” Robinson said. “We’ve been down three times this season to teams 1-0 and we’ve really had the work ethic to come back. And when I say work ethic I emphasis it because they just worked for it.
